How,

Good news story of a lost person finding her way out. She should have just found wombat, cooked over a fire, that would have kept here going for weeks 

This isnt far down the road from my place south of Cairns.
It appears that they had a big weekend and maybe even a bit of a yike and she then wanderd into the rainforest.
It is fairly open once past the edges because not much light gets through but there is a lot of Lawyer vine which has very vicious hooks and that tore her clothes.
Plenty of water flowing and she was near a creek which kept her alive.

Losing 14 kg puts Jenny Craig to shame and it might take off as a new diet center.

Cassowaries can be very dangerous and also wild pigs which are common. The crocodile she saw was probably a freshie so not much problem from it.

Very lucky lady to find her way out after getting well into the area because it is massive.
